Sunday • Southgate House Revival

Family in general and brothers in
particular can screw up a band like walnuts in lime Jell-O. The Kinks.
The Black Crowes. Oasis. The Blasters could qualify in that spotty
sweepstakes, at least to a certain extent.

In Dave Alvin's world, you're either burning up the highway miles en route to the next show or back home in California trying to figure out which band to take on tour this time next year. The celebrated roots-rocker likes to mix it up on the road.
